## Questions to ask before you hire

1. **Is your license active, and in this company's name?** Check it yourself on the state licensing board's site.
2. **Who pulls the permit, and is it in the price?** It should be the business, and it should be in writing.
3. **What is the payment schedule?** Payments should follow stages of work, not a large deposit up front.
4. **What does the warranty cover, and for how long?** Ask for the terms in writing.
